While that is quite flattering it really comes down to the basic rules...
Have cash in hand and a vechicle(s) ready to roll!
I was thinking of you today my friend as I drove by the Richmondville exit of I-88 on yet another game run.
Yes I know, but it is fun to build you up larger than life, like an arcade Paul Bunyan! And that Star Wars cockpit is pretty epic!

Tighe, his head doesn't need to get any bigger!! He didn't do this alone.
Lets not forget the other half owner of this deal which involved my back, my truck, my van(because his was and always is full) and my garage/storage(again,because his was and always is full).
I almost shit when I saw it and was just amazed it was there. What surprised me was the owner said he was only called by one other person.
It will be hard to top this one.

Very nice find. My dealing so far with Ops is warehouses full of garbage, half of which they wont sell, the other half they think their machines are full of gold. All of them in shit condition. =( Nice find there, that Star Wars cab looks sweet.

I know your getting a little older, but I drove us there to see them and probably the most important fact is that they are locked in my garage.
That's awesome! I love reading about stories like these. Great saves.

Nope this one: http://albany.craigslist.org/vgm/2613783920.html Seteve sent it to me, must have missed it because it is titled ArcadeArcade no space.
OMG yes! I know where to buy tickets in Montreal!
Also I have the Buffalo area CL in my app, and damn Buffalo area for having a Arcade NY! So many irrelevant listings I am thinking about dropping that CL from my search! Kevin will vouch for that I am sure!

Arcade, NY is the bane of my existence.
That one annoys the hell out of me too along with that damn "We the People" one...
